Start out with Greg Toppo's update on where things stand (here). USA Today.

Speaking of the hearing, you can watch the live webcast (video, audio plays on your screen) here. Good background listening.

Getting antsy? You can read Reid Lyon's explanation of his role and what Reading First was supposed to do here. No apologies there, that's for sure. Why isn't he at the hearing?

Speaking of who is and isn't at the hearing -- where's Spellings? If Gonzalez can come up and explain himself, why can't she?
